Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients (Crepe Batter):
- 1 cup (120 grams) all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) milk
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) water
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) melted butter
Sweeteners and Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Seasoning:
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Craft a silky crepe batter by blending flour, eggs, milk, water, melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until perfectly smooth. Allow the mixture to rest for 15-20 minutes, enabling the ingredients to harmonize.
- Warm a non-stick skillet over medium heat, lightly coating with butter. Pour a precise portion of batter, tilting the pan to create an even, thin layer. Cook for approximately 1-2 minutes until the edges become delicately crisp and lift slightly.
- Carefully flip the crepe, cooking the opposite side for an additional 30 seconds until achieving a light golden hue. Repeat the process with remaining batter, stacking crepes on a plate.
- Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft, billowy peaks emerge. Gently incorporate Nutella, folding with a delicate touch to create a luxurious, smooth cream filling.
- Generously spread the Nutella cream across each crepe, artfully folding into elegant quarters or rolling into delicate cylinders.
- Elevate the presentation by dusting with a light veil of powdered sugar, scattering fresh berries, or drizzling with decadent chocolate syrup. Serve immediately while still warm for maximum enjoyment.
Notes
- Resting the batter allows gluten to relax, ensuring tender, delicate crepes with a smooth texture.
- Use a non-stick pan or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet to prevent sticking and achieve perfect golden-brown crepes.
- Adjust crepe thickness by tilting the pan quickly after pouring batter, creating thinner or thicker crepes based on preference.
- For gluten-free option, substitute all-purpose flour with almond or rice flour, maintaining the same measurements.
